Chicago Bears safety Jaquan Brisker thinks New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones meant to kick him during Monday’s game between the clubs. 

“Looking back, when he first slid, he had tried to trip me, so I feel like the second time was intentional,” Brisker explained during an appearance on the “Bernstein & Holmes Show” that airs on 670 The Score Chicago, as shared by Jenna Lemoncelli of the New York Post. “After looking back at the film, it looked intentional.

“But after the game, he came up to me and apologized. But I’ll say, the first two times, it looked very intentional during those slides. I tried to avoid him. The way he slid, he slid with his feet on the ground first. I tried to avoid him, and he kicked his foot up. So it was very intentional to me.” 

Jones went viral on Monday for a pair of slides that included the signal-caller hitting the Chicago rookie below the belt:
